Fifi has different engines than the original, problematic and flammable engines. Does anyone know what kind of engines DOC has?

I saw DOC in her hanger when visiting my Mom and Sister in Wichita. LOVELY plane!

Probably the same engines as FIFI. The two teams worked pretty close in providing advice and pilot/crew training.

So you say there are two "Millenium Falcons" in operation?

Nice, thanks. Had seen her years back, but didn't get the chance to go aboard.

Hi all,

Thanks!

BTW, IIRC, the "Fifi" is "Franken B29" (i.e. she was put together from many different available parts)... am I right?
